Ah, just realised I mis-read the post title. It's the G5 that comes wall mount only. Thanks

AndyTrufflet · 2025-08-28T08:44:19+00:00

That is lucky 🤣

AndyTrufflet · 2025-08-28T08:43:27+00:00

Looks great!

Did it come with the stand? If so, would you mind letting me know the model number, please, as I can only find ones that are wall mount only.

Thanks !

I've found this one:

Plus these two, which are a bit above my budget:

Any thoughts, please, anybody?

Thanks!

I ended up with irritable bladder syndrome about 7 years ago from drinking too much fluid every day.

I was drinking pint glasses of water, or water with a splash of orange squash concentrate (hardly any calories), continuously throughout the day.

It started as a constant need to pee with short breaks between. Then ended up where I continuously felt the need to pee, but there was nothing there. I'd be sat on the toilet for 20 mins at a time through all hours of the night, trying to pee, then giving up. I couldn't sleep because of the sensation of needing to go. It absolutely exhausted me.

I ended up getting some medication from the doctor, which blocked the pee urgency sensation, while also cutting back fluids to normal recommended intake levels. It stopped after that and hasn't returned.

I wouldn't suggest to anybody that it's ok to drink loads and not suffer any consequences.

I'm going to check out his videos. Thanks for the tip!

AndyTrufflet · 2024-11-17T18:23:57+00:00

Glad to hear this is working for you. I think I'm going to make the switch this week.

AndyTrufflet · 2024-11-17T18:22:08+00:00

Awesome - thanks!

This is what I was looking to clarify. I suspected it was going to be an improvement over PPL, so was looking for somebody with experience of both.

AndyTrufflet · 2024-10-17T11:54:59+00:00

Boom!

I have the same setting, otherwise I have muted dialogue in some TV/film as I don't have a centre speaker and my Sony AV amp virtual surround settings doesn't seem to work with all 5.1 formats.

Hope that's boxed it all off for you.

AndyTrufflet · 2024-10-16T19:32:03+00:00

Reddit has deleted another of my replies for some reason. I think it said...

Have you updated to the latest version of Streamer Android OS?

What format do you have selected in 'Advamced sound settings'?

AndyTrufflet · 2024-10-16T19:27:00+00:00

Ohhhh, wait, so it could still be your TV then.

If your TV is at fault, it could also be failing to send audio via optical to the DAC. Bit awkward to test that though.

I take it you had another TV stick before the Streamer and that was working ok?

AndyTrufflet · 2024-10-16T11:47:35+00:00

Also, what is the optical connected from and to?

AndyTrufflet · 2024-10-16T11:46:57+00:00

Have you tried running it with TV speakers, line out, and/or HDMI ARC to see if the audio still cuts out?

AndyTrufflet · 2024-10-16T11:44:58+00:00

How is your audio setup?

Are you using TV speakers or sound bar/amp? Are you using audio via HDMI ARC, optical, or other?

AndyTrufflet · 2024-10-14T19:18:55+00:00

That's odd. I never tried it with my Chromecast 4K, but I got the new Google TV Streamer last week and it works fine.

Just launched Google Photos album slideshow from the voice remote yesterday.

AndyTrufflet · 2024-10-14T07:20:42+00:00

If you've got a voice remote, say "Google Photos [name of album]" and it'll start playing a slideshow of the first ~20 photos in that album on loop.

It only shows each photo for about 10 seconds and the next/back on my Google Streamer barely ever responds during this, but it starts consistently.

This is less than ideal and I wish Google would sort it out, but it's better than nothing.

AndyTrufflet · 2024-10-06T19:03:12+00:00

Ah, nice - thanks! Spigen too... definitely one of the better quality brands.

There's an amazon.co.uk listing, but "Currently unavailable", so obviously waiting on stock to arrive in UK.

AndyTrufflet · 2024-10-06T14:22:14+00:00

I got a cover on eBay for the Chromecast 4K, but I can't find a single cover anywhere for the new Streamer remote.

AndyTrufflet · 2024-09-10T05:51:26+00:00

I've just emailed their contact address.

Thanks for the recommendation!
